Re: New divisions at nats?
Personally I really don't think Edison or Newton really should be division field names. Edison was not that Graciously Professional and I have to do some more reseach but I think Newton may have been the same way. They were both fairly cut-throat and competed with a lot of people. Anway I noticed a theme with the fields.
Einstein-died in failure (failed in creating a unified theory)
Curie- died of radiation (not really failure but dying because of work)
Archemedies-killed by Roman soilder while doing math problem
Newton-really doesn't fit
Galilelo-died while in permament house arest because of his ideas
I want Tesla (created the whole basis for everyone's power grid yet not really known) and Da Vinci would be a good fit.
